Lafayette, Marquis de, to George WashingtonALS in English, marked by Jared Sparks: "(Duplicate) (Letter to
Washington.)" This letter was written during the sojourn in
Holstein, after Lafayette's liberation. "However uncertain of the
fate of my letters, I am happy to let you hear from me, and altho'
the filial and grateful sentiments which from my youth have animated
my heart need not being remembered to you, it is to me, while so
unwilllingly separated from you, a great and necessary consolation
to express them." (Gottschalk, p. 112.)
